Overtime, exhaustion,...

Pros

Overall I can only say that the best thing in TPT is the people. My team was amazing, we supported each other at all times and became good friends.

Cons

Not taking advantage of the previous experience of senior people when starting at TPT; the lack of time to do everything, to think (sometimes even to breath!); the constant pressure from Management to negotiate with suppliers to lower their rates; the bureaucracy due to the size of the company and its processes; the extreme overtime to have the workload done.

Pros

TransPerfect offers an environment that provides its employees with great earning potential, amazing services and solutions to offer, travel opportunities, and is overall a great place for personal and professional growth. They are innovative, entrepreneurial, secure and growing, fun, energetic and very much dedicated to providing best in class client service and technology. I worked there for 6+ years and attribute a lot of my own growth to them as I learned a tremendous amount about the industry and business operations in general across a variety of different sectors. I would highly recommend TransPerfect as a place of employment as well as a supplier for language related requirements and translation management technology.

Cons

Any organization that grows quickly will have operational challenges and sometimes things would move slowly because of the amount of work everyone had on their plates. In my last two years there was a serious push to put in place various controls to ensure they became more efficient across several different functions. Another con in my opinion is that they hire too young and inexperienced and they should increase their recruitment of experienced and well seasoned business professionals.

Pros

There is really no limit in what you can do in TransPerfect. Unfortunately the people who write the negative reviews are the ones who failed to see it or ask for it. If you are good and willing to work, you will have a career. For me and for many others, TransPerfect is our home, full of opportunities, amazing clients and good people. In only 3 years with the company I learned so much. I don't know how things were 4 and 5 years ago, but the support we are getting nowadays from Management is more than enough. Your Manager checks in with you 4 times a day, goes through your projects, is constantly there to advise and give you guidance. Constant training, at least once a week we train on different subjects, we prepare presentations and we specialize. Cool people, most of the time there is a very nice easygoing environment.

Cons

High workload and tight deadlines. This is definitely part of your daily life in TransPerfect. But with big clients, comes responsibility.
